Doctoral research programme
The typical length for the PhD programme in Marine Technology is three years; this is comprised of one semester of additional study and 2.5 years of dissertation work and research. Today, the department has 45 PhD students and a number of research fellow programmes. Three of these programmes are financed by the Norwegian Research Council:
- Scenario-based risk assessment of ship collisions and grounding
- Marine computational fluid dynamics
- Energy-efficient all-electric ships
